The moment you've been waiting for! The appearance of Fiona Rae Stacy. A really happy moment for the Wynwoods. Enjoy!
I sat on the sofa with my friends and Nate. My phone on the table, mocking me. The parents all retreated to the patio to enjoy some wine I had kindly offered.
It was past 10 p.m. I had long gotten rid of my heels and makeup. It was replaced with red Converse and lip balm. Finally, in what seemed like hours, my phone rang to Jesse's face and name, glowing. I grabbed the object and answered it.
"Jesse?!" I exclaimed. He laughed.
"No hello?" He said. I groaned and put it on loudspeaker. "I'm joking. Just want to say..." He drifted off. I could hear the grin on his face as he said the next words. "Welcome to the world Fiona Rae!" I screamed with the girls.
"Oh my God! Is she cute?" I asked. I heard Jesse chuckle.
"She's very cute. She's also very tiny. Mom's sending you a picture, check my iPad." I retrieved the object from the coffee table. A pop-up came up and I accepted it, quickly. Soon a picture of a tired but smiling Cornelia came up with a tiny baby lying on top of her. Jesse was right, she was cute and tiny. Tears sprang in my eyes. I showed everyone the picture and they all cooed. "Cornie wants you here." Jesse continued.
"I can drive you!" Mitchie offered, getting her keys. "Let me just inform the adults, you go to my car. Mazz, come with us." Mitchie said, going outside. Mara and I said bye to everyone and got into Mitch's car. Soon we were on our way to the hospital, I went so often, I was a regular there and made friends with the staff.
...
"Hey, Lizzie." I said, greeting the receptionist.
"Heya, Caitlyn! Merry Christmas and congratulations on little baby Fiona! Room's number 57." She smiled.
"Thanks! Merry Christmas!" I responded. Mitch and Mazz exchanged greetings and we dashed for the lift. We got in and pressed the maternity floor. I was buzzing with excitement that I didn't realise we had gotten to the maternity ward. I saw Jesse standing there on his phone, clearly disappointed. "Hey. What's up?" I asked.
"Tess is cheating on me with that rapper and dancer, Luke Williams. Hey, didn't he go out with that Dana chick, Axl's daughter?" He asked. So that's who she hooked up with which caused the breakup of her and Nate and the formation of me and Nate. I nodded, guessing. "Thank God, we're done. I had my eye on someone else." He winked.
"Who?" We asked. Jesse shook his head, smiling. Jesse led me to our sister and our new niece while my friends stayed in the waiting room. I walked into the room and immediately saw the little bundle of joy in her Moses basket next to Cornelia's bed. Cornelia had her eyes closed so I thought she was taking a nap, seeing that Fifi (my petname for Fiona) was sleeping.
"CoCo?" I called out gently. Her eyes fluttered open and she looked at me, smiling. "Hey...You look tired." I said, taking a seat next to Fifi's cot. I put my finger in her open palm and she immediately clenched her tiny hand over it. She gently opened her eyes and I grinned when her little pale blue-grey eyes stared back at me, taking my features in.
"I am tired. I just had a kid come out of me 45 minutes ago." She said. I looked at her and stroked her cheek. I kissed her cheek then kissed my niece's. Fiona's little straight brown hair fitted her eye complexion so beautifully. I really wanted a kid now but not too soon. Probably when Nate and I passed our 1 year wedding anniversary, should we think about it. "And I look absolutely horrible now." She continued moaning. Now, when I have my own child, I'll be casual about it. I'll do my makeup so I'll look alright before and after I give birth.
"You look great." I assured her, taking her hand and kissing it. "And she looks adorable!" I said, cooing over Fifi. Fiona gurgled and I swear she smiled at me. I grinned and kissed her head. This was one of the most greatest Christmas Day ever. "Hello, Fiona. You were born on this special day called Christmas. Guess who else was born this day? Jesus Christ." I said to her. Now, I was also a Christian like Nate. We all were. We took our holidays serious but we didn't go to church often. Lately, I find myself, along with Mitchie, going to church every Sunday, praying for my nightmares to go away and praying for my family to be blessed and safe.
My phone buzzed in my pocket and I took it out. Nate's face and name popped up on the bright screen. I answered it. "Hey, babe. I'm at the hospital, cooing over our niece." I said. I loved that phrase, 'our niece'.
"I can't wait to meet her. My parents and Ames have just left and so has Mara and Mitchie's family. Hey, is it alright if we stay over? Mitchie has to go back on her tour in two days so we can all spend as much time as possible with each other. Plus we can talk wedding..." He said. I smiled and looked at Cornelia who was looking back at me with a small smile.
"Without Cornelia? She'll flip." I said, grinning.
"Well does her name begin with a N, S, J, M or C?" He asked. I laughed at his obvious stupidity. "Oh yeah... Well Ca, then." I laughed again.
"Fine, babe. It will just be Connect 3 & Mitchie, Mara and Caitlyn day. Wedding chat, baby chat and no Cornelia. I will inform her that she is banned from taking part in our day." I said. Cornelia looked clearly displeased at Nate. She told me to hand my phone over. I did and laughed when he replied to my answer but to my sister.
"You're damn right, it's our day and she's banned. Why did you laugh?" He asked.
"Hello, Nathaniel." I could hear Nate gulp.
"Hi, Cornelia! Congratulations and we'll see you tomorrow. Oh look, my mother's calling, bye!" He hung up. I laughed hysterically at Cornelia's reaction. She just stared at my iPhone, fuming. She chucked it back to me and I caught it easily.
"You're marrying him?" She asked, shaking her head. She suddenly started laughing with me. We heard Fiona gurgle and looked at her. She looked back, smiling slightly. Cornelia sighed, contentedly.
"I should go, my friends are waiting and it's past 11. We'll be all coming to see you two tomorrow. I love you." I said, kissing her forehead and then Fifi's.
"Yeah. I love you too, bye." She returned the gesture to me. She waved and I left her room, walking down the hallway and the girls stood in front of the lift, waiting for me. I had tears down my face and I smiled happily. I saw Jesse walk out of the boys bathroom and I remembered that I'd been meaning to tell him something.
"Hey, J?" I called, he looked over to me. "It's Amelia, isn't it?" I grinned when his face paled.
"No way!" Mitchie squealed. "You're going out with Amy?" She whispered. Some doctors in this hospital didn't respect the privacy of the celebrities.
"Yeah. Don't tell your boyfriends. They'll flip if they knew." Jesse looked at me in particular, knowing Nate was her favorite brother.
"Jesse, they'll not care. They'll do the 'big brother' speech then leave you be. Trust me, they really like you. Come on! Nate's going to be your brother in law and Shane and Jason compliment your skills on every instrument you touch and play." Mara said. Jesse nodded and smiled. Us four made our ways to Mitchie's car and then soon we were driving back to Mom's.
"Mitchie, Mara! Wake up. Half an hour in the bathroom each! We need to get into them before the boys." I said, hitting them with my pillow. Today we were going shopping but then Nate and I would go off and buy some baby stuff for Cornelia and Fiona by ourselves then meet up with the rest of our group at Starbucks. Mitchie dashed to the bathroom downstairs to get into the shower and Mara did the same but with the one upstairs. I heard two annoyed groans fill the house. Jason and Shane. I locked my bedroom door so Nate didn't have the satisfaction of having a shower with me. Just 9 months my little Wolfie. Just wait.
I went into my bathroom and had a shower in 15 minutes tops then I brushed my teeth and put on light makeup. I wrapped a towel around my torso and Nate called out to me. I let him in and he went into my bathroom and closed the door. I realized that he brought his clothes and laid them on my bed. Hmm, maybe we can be those cute couples who color coordinate and dress kinda like the same. I went through the clothes. Black Supras, dark blue skinny jeans, white top, chain with a cross, brown leather jacket and sunglasses. I looked through my wardrobe and got my brown leather jacket, white long-sleeve, blue jeans, heart pendant from Nate on my 18th birthday, necklace from my charms which Mitch and Mazz had the same and my charm bracelet from my future brother-in-laws and brown ankle heels. We were in Miami which was hot and sunny even if it was December and cold and icy in another place. I got dressed and grabbed my sunglasses from my vanity.
Nate came out and got dressed and put his glasses to rest on top of his head. I opened my door and saw four people waiting for us. They smirked and we rolled our eyes, saying that he took long in the shower. I normally expect this from Shane. He seems to be rubbing off on Nate. We got into Jason's SUV and he started the car and we headed to the mall. When we got there, we went to a couple of shops as a group, trying on clothes and stuff. Loads of paparazzi were there.
"Hey Caitlyn! Are you happy that your new niece arrived on Christmas day? Congratulations to your sister and your family."
"What's that I spot. Is that an engagement ring?"
Somebody heard that dude say that he spotted the ring. Then it all traveled through the paps.
"It is an engagement ring! It's pretty gorgeous too, can we get a picture, Caitlyn? Come on! Don't be stingy!"
I stuffed my hand in my pocket after Nate advised me to. We all went on in our business as they followed. Most circulated on our engagement and Fiona's birth. Nate and I then split up with the other four and went to a new baby and mothers shop called 'My Baby Boo & Me'. The paps managed to follow and my hand started to burn in my pocket. I took it out and scratched a itch on my head and stuffed it back in my pocket again. Nate opened the door for me and we went it the freshly new store.
We went hand in hand roaming through the store and choosing a Connect 3 onesie. I showed it to Nate and he laughed, insisting we buy it. I put it in our trolley and went through. There were booties we chose and other onesies. I got body suits and a new pram for Fiona. Tim and Cornelia were moving out and had their own house with their daughter's new bedroom. We got a few decorations and bottles and a automatic cleaner for baby bottles. A few other mechanical items to make life easier for the new parents and we were off to pay for everything with Nate's credit card of course. We bumped into a brunette pregnant lady and apologized and our eyes widened at who we saw.
Dana Turner and her father Axl.
I know I'm evil but I barely have time. Today I was tired and my back and feet were killing me because I had just gotten back from my cousin's wedding at 5 p.m. I was a bridesmaid as I always said. You're lucky for the update this Friday night! Sorry short but next chapter will be long! Promise! x
Thank you, love you, live you.
